inspiration behind the song, from an interview. The taxi driver had told us she used to be a long haul delivery driver and then went into a lot of personal details. She would take cocaine and crystal meth to stay awake so that she could drive all across the states on just one go. Then, one day, she overdid it and took too much meth and blacked out. Later, she found herself waking up one day suddenly in a strip club. She looked up and asked one of the strippers dancing what state she was in and what date it was. Turns out a whole month had gone by. She was no longer in the right state and had completely loss her truck. That whole month went by with zero recollection of what happened but she had this deep haunting feeling that she had done something terribly wrong, maybe even murder.
There’s not a word for this in English, but it’s that feeling when you do something like listening to this video, or going to a concert. And its a feeling in your chest, it’s feels the same way emotional pain does like in terms of it’s heaviness, but it’s not pain. It’s this sensual mix of anger and flow. Uhh I’m high, disregard this comment I just realized how ridiculously at was getting
3:30 begins sounding like a videogame trailer with like a shit ton of fairies and mystical stuff then like getting into a whole different storyline where you have to fight beasts then find out that everything was a hallucination and you were fighting for nothing, just make believe things to feel comfort for being alone.

On the original video, someone made a comment about this song being about a 1950s housewife poisoning people who she disliked with cherry pie or other bakes and reading their obituaries with a smile the next day. It led through her eventual decrease into insanity until she attempts to kill her young son and realises what she's done. It was so well written and I'm not sure if the comment is still there but it's all I think of when I listen to this song and it's just so damn good.
I remember that too. The way it was written out, it really felt like you’re watching a music video for the song. I hope they write a book, that was a good read.
I always think of someone waking up in a different dimension that has no sound and is just them and a child in baseball gear. The dimension is just an unending field of wheat.
This is my favorite song on the album and omg I love this. The lyrics are so enticing and make you feel like something is just off and this video really gives it that mood.
Every time I listen to this I imagine devils and angels dancing around a huge bonfire with each other. Rum in hand, laughter in the air, garments strewn about haphazardly and not a care in the word. They all just abandoned their masters for a night of debauchery.
Having actually gotten into this song, this remix of it is absolutely insane and is just a perfect example of how to improve a song beyond amazing. Honestly easily one of the best remixes I’ve heard of all time, the buildup and release at the end is nothing short of just incredible.
I love the comment sections under these videos so much. Reading comments from people who actually think about a song, how the song makes them feel... it's amazing. Haha, idk.
at first, didnt hit me that hard, but then that whispy, background-ish thing got stuck in my head, absolutely haunting. i don't mean the high pitched whispy one, i mean the lower one that is kinda hard to hear and doesn't go on the whole song.
@@aj-dk5ym Although a part of me is sad that GA isn't as much of a hidden gem anymore, I can't help but be happy! I think it's awesome that they're getting more exposure and their one-of-a-kind music is being spread throughout the world!
@@Jessicathebright that's the mindset to have! frankly, I was upset at first that it was a ship that manifested the song and "tore" its meaning, but it's definitely good to see GA get big :)
I may not be gone insane, but this song to me is quite catchy, giving me this backstory of Alice in Wonderland vibes... huh, maybe I have gone insane come to think of that, who knows? lol
The vibe I get from this song is a group of friends decide to take a walk to the woods at night. But at some point they discover something they shouldn’t have found. It makes one of them go insane and kill one of the other kids. But after the kid is killed, the other returns to normal. The rest of the group had already fled, but the one that killed the other remains, and this is the song that plays in their head after they calm down.
This song along with some other glass animals songs is brilliant! It gives off this calm, quiet, but terrifyingly powerful vibes. Like hoe deadly is something that seems like could never hurt you and it makes all my imagined animatics n stuff just that much more majestic
First of all Cloudy, "multiple personalities disorder" is an outdated term, it's referred to as DID or dissociative identity disorder now. Secondly, please for the love of god stop trying to relate any song with a dangerous or creepy undertone to some kind of mental illness you clearly lack any form of knowledge on. It portrays the illness in a bad light and can possibly mislead people. Just because the song references hearing voices does *not* = schizophrenia. Schizophrenia often times is much more complex than hearing voices and at times doesn't even include auditory hallucinations, especially voices. Mental illness isn't some quirky thing you should all slap onto a song title. It's not even what the intended story the writers were trying to convey here.
This is the only version i listen to of this song. I always come back to it on those quiet nights where there's a feeling of uneasy calm, but still remaining in the night due to the haunting welcome
Yes me too ! especially OOT/Majora's mask vibes for some reasons ? I keep imagining the nice fairy-like part as OOT and the insane part as Majora's mask
I just listened to this version of this song and then couldn’t move for about a half hour I’ve listened to the song so much that slowed down it makes me feel super weird Listening to it feels like what it feels like to listen to glass animals while falling asleep
Ok ok so if yall play "The Arcana" yall would know that the music in the game is really cool and often has flute in it. I can really picture this song being in the game like MY GOD! ITS SOOOO GOOD!
I sense an OC animatic in the making that will never be finished because one, no clue how to edit music in and two, not enough patience to make something like that.
Listen, the only other time I was given this much emotion listening to a song was when I heard the original for the first time. This is my favorite thing.

Damn that's crazy

[Verse 1]
In the summer, took my gun
And made him go to Neverland
He was something, my old husband
He had all you'd ever want
Did you say something? What'd you say? Was that your voice or was that me?
Little voices buzzing poison
Backward noise from everything
Dr. Swango says I'm psycho
Says they all from Neverland
They'll never ever let me be
Was that your voice or was that me?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Dirty Dustin, said he saw him
Playing ball with Dizzy Jim
Dizzy Jim had never spoken
Whispered back, "You murdered him"
My heart strings broke and it was me
I pull, they stretch infinitely
[Chorus]
In the summer silence,
I was getting violent
In the summer silence,
I was doing nothing
In the summer silence,
I was getting violent
In the summer silence,
I was doing nothing
[Bridge]
Play with me, my love, in the summer sun
I'll be waiting in your favourite Cheshire grin
Lay with me, my dear, in the evening clear
I'll be dreaming in my paper-pale skin
[Chorus]
In the summer silence, I was getting violentIn the summer silence, I was doing nothing
In the summer silence, I was getting violentIn the summer silence, I was doing nothing

That kinda reminds me of the story in the song “Housewife Radio”
I remember that! It was incredibly well written even if it was wrong!
I really hope someone has a copy of that comment 😭
does someone have a link i wanna read it
Im already a hard-core fan of glass animals, so this made my day, bro, thanks.
I have a feeling this is gonna get turned into a bunch of animation memes
Random Commenter “mamas gun” is already an animation meme
I stg i hope not 😳
@@flyingfeathers2377 really? I've only seen The Other Side of Paradise get turned into animation memes
Random Commenter pork soda was the biggest one afaik
Random Commenter yeah, pork soda and the other side of paradise were the big ones. But mamas gun, cane shuga, and take a slice are also memes
I always think of someone waking up in a different dimension that has no sound and is just them and a child in baseball gear. The dimension is just an unending field of wheat.
This made sense to me.
Reminds me of the Catcher in the Rye with the child and field and all
Thats actually really cool, I might draw it
@Zuzanna Olejnik I was thinking that too!
Like its so similar to the beginning of C/S/R too
I always think of a sunny countryside in the mountains, in the summer and its really hot, quiet and tense like there's about to be a tropical storm
I love how once you know the backstory, this songs hits even harder. Like they kinda captured the feeling of it omg
"oo! a new slowed down song!" *clicks* *becomes insane*
I like ur pfp
Meoww
you can flex that you knew glass animals before heat waves now
This reminds me of Peter Pan and I don’t know why
well the beginning does sound a lot like something that'd be in one of those movies. the photo also looks like a place that'd be in that movie. lmao
Maybe because they say Neverland?
neverland
Peter bread?
The flute, most likely :-) that's the first impression I got too
This is my favorite song on the album and omg I love this. The lyrics are so enticing and make you feel like something is just off and this video really gives it that mood.
This comment exactly! Something just not right. It makes me imagine that there’s a body somewhere hidden? I DUNNO WHY
Every time I listen to this I imagine devils and angels dancing around a huge bonfire with each other. Rum in hand, laughter in the air, garments strewn about haphazardly and not a care in the word. They all just abandoned their masters for a night of debauchery.

Is this what being high sounds like
Nobody Nemo yes. Yes it is.
Honestly, this whole glass animals it’s what being high sounds like oml
Depends what you’re high on lmao
Just listen to “Hazey” or “Black Mambo” by Glass Animals.
Getting high and blasting anything that Glass Animals has written is the best part of life
Glass animals deserves so much more recognition
Oh yes
This, this is nice.
I wasn't a fan of Mama's Gun before, but now this edit is literally my favourite Glass Animals song to date! Thanks!
listened to this so much the original sounds like nightcore
Listen to this while walking alone in the middle of the night.
It makes you feel a certain way I can't describe.
Not enough comments for this masterpiece!
How does this not have more love. The song sounds so good this way, too
this gives me a very enchanting but haunted feeling.

The whole video is normal, you're the one actually going insane
This is the only song I can listen to a slowed version of for extended periods of time. This is something else.
Oh maaan this is so cool! You should definitely do more glass animal songs I feel like they are some of the best to be slowed down like this!
okay 1. amazing, beautiful. I f-ing love slowed songs
2. how do humans even do this beauty--
3. *I'm crying wtf*
This made me go from circle to orb.
at first, didnt hit me that hard, but then that whispy, background-ish thing got stuck in my head, absolutely haunting.
i don't mean the high pitched whispy one, i mean the lower one that is kinda hard to hear and doesn't go on the whole song.
underrated
I say this with full honesty, and truthfulness,
*This hits different.*
Here before this song becomes nostalgic.
Truly a masterpiece ❤️🌸

this song is criminally underrated

This sounds so much better slowed down! Damn, I like this song so much more now!

this reminds me of schizophrenia
i'm pretty sure the song vaguely refers to mental illnesses, like schizophrenia.
Sounds about right honestly that or multiple personalities disorder

I caught that too. The things about voices and how his personality changes so rapidly. Good to see someone else saw it too :)
And somehow insomnia as well
For some reason playing this song and doing your makeup before school is the most relaxing thing
I know this video is old but PLEASE drop this on spotify
